About GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper complex) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide found in human plasma. Preclinical research has investigated its role in stimulating collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, promoting wound healing, modulating anti-inflammatory pathways, and activating tissue remodeling processes. It has been studied in dermal, bone, and nerve repair models.
